Melbourne Rebels v Queensland Reds today. 
I went to this super rugby game this evening in AAMI Park by the MCG . Great game which could have gone either way but edged by Melbourne. Interestingly, sides went for touch rather than kick for goal in almost all cases. Also even more interesting was not one box kick by the scrum half’s ( to the best of my recollection) during the game. 

As an aside I have to say the food choices and quality at all Oz  stadiums we have been to has been excellent ( I went to the Aussie Rules game Collingwood v Port Adelaide earlier before 60,000 in the MCG also with excellent refreshment options). We have a lot to do in this department at PYS as we have not really progressed much - in my opinion anyway.

The refreshments in this country are almost all the same in any sport over priced crap.

Hope you enjoy your trip around Oz

Made me laugh about Canberra, most people find it soulless, apart from its architecture its full of politicians!!! Oh by the way dont call Mal Meninga, Mail Melinga in Canberra, he's a rugby league legend there.

Always good crowds for the AFL /aerial ping pong as Melbourne has not much to offer outdoors, the weather is usually bad and they have crap beaches. The restaurants are pretty good as are the cafes.  

If you get a chance to see a game at the newly built Sydney football stadium (SFS) worth going to as its purpose built for rugby (league and union).

As we head to winter the NSW beaches are quiet, try heading to the central coast about 85km north of Sydney and find a nice beach like Avoca or Kilcare, usually get a meal and a beer at the local surf life saving club ... plug by me as a member of my local SLSC. Only swim on patrolled beaches. 

As for the food comparison, cant comment, its been about 6 yrs since I last saw a live game at PYS and when I get to Llanelli in mid-May for 2 weeks, fixtures have finished, just hoping the Castore merchandise shop is open. 



 
I was there ...one Tuesday when the All Blacks came (and lost)

Ha ha .. yes I know what you mean re Canberra but we love it anyway and the slow train from Canberra to Sydney a delight- so cheap most people go first class 😂 

Thanks for the other tips! 👍
